Signal levels
of real live
data from a
gigabit switch
The signal level screen is one the most powerful tools used during
Level 2 certifi cation. It is a live signal attenuation display. If the level is
below the DATA MIN line, you may experience faulty transmissions. If
the signal is well above the DATA MIN line, you have plenty of "head-
room". Press the down arrow key to continue.
The two examples shown shows off the differences between gigabit
devices and 10MB and 100MB devices. With a gigabit device it is pos-
sible to view real live data on all 4 pairs whereas a 10MB and 100MB
can only transmit on 1 pair. A gigabit device is a full duplex device that
uses all 4 pair therefore making it a perfect device to get a full view of
all 4 pairs of the cable.
